But he said he hopes his proposal will at least bring some attention to Fresno.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We are the flyover city of California,” Westerlund said. “We’d love to have more people understand the size of Fresno, the opportunity that is in Fresno, particularly when we see all the hyperactivity on the coast.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s Westerlund who came up with the idea to give Amazon a say in how it spends its tax dollars.

"content": "\u003cp>Six years ago, homebuilders and Realtors were facing brutal business conditions: Millions of Americans were losing their jobs and homes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As 2015 begins, hiring is strong and economic indicators are pointing up. Could this be the year when the housing market finally breaks out of its tepid recovery and takes off?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Economists see several reasons why 2015 might be a banner year for homebuying — and not just in San Francisco and Miami.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They also see One Big Factor that potentially could block a buying binge.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Before considering that possible downer, let's first look at the upside:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Employers\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong> are hiring again.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When companies are hiring, would-be homebuyers feel more confident about taking on mortgage debt.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During the recession, companies kept slashing positions, sending the unemployment rate soaring to 10 percent and frightening potential homebuyers. But job growth has been strong lately, with employers adding 321,000 jobs in November. The unemployment rate has tumbled to 5.8 percent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As that good news sinks in, optimism is rising. The Conference Board's latest \u003ca href=\"http://www.conference-board.org/press/pressdetail.cfm?pressid=5353\">Consumer Confidence Index\u003c/a> shows confidence is running 19.5 percent higher than a year ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Home\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong> prices just took a breather, which helps.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>From January to October, home prices rose 4.5 percent nationally, according to the latest \u003ca href=\"http://www.housingviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/CSHomePrice_Release_Oct2014-results.pdf\">S&P/Case Shiller Home Price Index\u003c/a>. That gain was subdued compared with October 2013, when home prices jumped 11 percent higher than the previous year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But slower price appreciation in 2014 may have set the stage for a buying surge in 2015. That's because buyers need the right combination of steady income, decent savings, low interest rates and reasonable home prices to jump into the market.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Labor Department's \u003ca href=\"http://www.bls.gov/news.release/empsit.nr0.htm\">latest jobs report\u003c/a> showed an uptick in wages, and the surging stock market has been boosting savings. Mortgages have been holding below 4 percent for 30-year fixed rates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And now the decelerating growth in home prices may be creating an affordability opportunity that will attract buyers in early 2015.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Rents\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong> are high.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When millions of Americans were losing their homes in the recession, many started moving into apartments. That shift caused rents to soar.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"With rents now rising at a seven-year high, historically low [interest] rates and moderating [home] price growth are likely to entice more buyers to enter the market in upcoming months,\" Lawrence Yun, the National Association of Realtors' chief economist, said in \u003ca href=\"http://www.realtor.org/news-releases/2014/12/pending-home-sales-show-modest-gain-in-november\">a release\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Millennials\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong> are sick of Mom's basement.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Census Bureau says just \u003ca href=\"http://www.census.gov/housing/hvs/files/currenthvspress.pdf\">36 percent\u003c/a> of Americans under age 35 own a home. In 2007, that figure was 42 percent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some young people enjoy renting, but a recent survey by Fannie Mae showed nine in 10 would prefer to own. They have been held back by tight lending standards that have made it tough to get around their heavy student debts and light savings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But in December, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2014/12/12/370378515/mortgage-giants-ease-down-payments-for-first-time-homebuyers\">announced programs\u003c/a> that would allow first-time buyers to get homes with down payments of just 3 percent, instead of 5 percent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That lower amount would allow creditworthy but cash-strapped young buyers to qualify for mortgages. \"If access to credit improves, we could see substantially larger numbers of young buyers in the market,\" Jonathan Smoke, chief economist for Realtor.com, said in his \u003ca href=\"http://realtormag.realtor.org/daily-news/2014/12/05/2015-year-first-time-home-buyer\">2015 outlook\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>But\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong> there's one reason for pessimism.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For years, many economists have been saying mortgage interest rates would rise. In 2015, they finally may be right.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That's because the Federal Reserve, which has held down both short- and long-term interest rates since 2008, has been signaling a coming change. The Fed is expected to allow rates to drift up, probably starting this summer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Industry economists generally expect mortgage rates to reach 5 percent by year's end. That would still be quite low by historical standards, but after having such cheap mortgages for so long, even a modest rate increase could scare off buyers, according to Lindsey Piegza, chief economist for Sterne Agee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"A rising monthly payment — thanks to rising interest rates — could cause an unwelcome sticker shock for many potential homebuyers,\" she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2015 NPR.

But job growth has been strong lately, with employers adding 321,000 jobs in November. The unemployment rate has tumbled to 5.8 percent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As that good news sinks in, optimism is rising. The Conference Board's latest \u003ca href=\"http://www.conference-board.org/press/pressdetail.cfm?pressid=5353\">Consumer Confidence Index\u003c/a> shows confidence is running 19.5 percent higher than a year ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Home\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong> prices just took a breather, which helps.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>From January to October, home prices rose 4.5 percent nationally, according to the latest \u003ca href=\"http://www.housingviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/CSHomePrice_Release_Oct2014-results.pdf\">S&P/Case Shiller Home Price Index\u003c/a>. That gain was subdued compared with October 2013, when home prices jumped 11 percent higher than the previous year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But slower price appreciation in 2014 may have set the stage for a buying surge in 2015. That's because buyers need the right combination of steady income, decent savings, low interest rates and reasonable home prices to jump into the market.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Labor Department's \u003ca href=\"http://www.bls.gov/news.release/empsit.nr0.htm\">latest jobs report\u003c/a> showed an uptick in wages, and the surging stock market has been boosting savings. Mortgages have been holding below 4 percent for 30-year fixed rates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And now the decelerating growth in home prices may be creating an affordability opportunity that will attract buyers in early 2015.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Rents\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong> are high.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When millions of Americans were losing their homes in the recession, many started moving into apartments. That shift caused rents to soar.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"With rents now rising at a seven-year high, historically low [interest] rates and moderating [home] price growth are likely to entice more buyers to enter the market in upcoming months,\" Lawrence Yun, the National Association of Realtors' chief economist, said in \u003ca href=\"http://www.realtor.org/news-releases/2014/12/pending-home-sales-show-modest-gain-in-november\">a release\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Millennials\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong> are sick of Mom's basement.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Census Bureau says just \u003ca href=\"http://www.census.gov/housing/hvs/files/currenthvspress.pdf\">36 percent\u003c/a> of Americans under age 35 own a home. In 2007, that figure was 42 percent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some young people enjoy renting, but a recent survey by Fannie Mae showed nine in 10 would prefer to own. They have been held back by tight lending standards that have made it tough to get around their heavy student debts and light savings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But in December, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2014/12/12/370378515/mortgage-giants-ease-down-payments-for-first-time-homebuyers\">announced programs\u003c/a> that would allow first-time buyers to get homes with down payments of just 3 percent, instead of 5 percent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That lower amount would allow creditworthy but cash-strapped young buyers to qualify for mortgages. \"If access to credit improves, we could see substantially larger numbers of young buyers in the market,\" Jonathan Smoke, chief economist for Realtor.com, said in his \u003ca href=\"http://realtormag.realtor.org/daily-news/2014/12/05/2015-year-first-time-home-buyer\">2015 outlook\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>But\u003c/strong>\u003cstrong> there's one reason for pessimism.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For years, many economists have been saying mortgage interest rates would rise. In 2015, they finally may be right.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That's because the Federal Reserve, which has held down both short- and long-term interest rates since 2008, has been signaling a coming change. The Fed is expected to allow rates to drift up, probably starting this summer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Industry economists generally expect mortgage rates to reach 5 percent by year's end. That would still be quite low by historical standards, but after having such cheap mortgages for so long, even a modest rate increase could scare off buyers, according to Lindsey Piegza, chief economist for Sterne Agee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"A rising monthly payment — thanks to rising interest rates — could cause an unwelcome sticker shock for many potential homebuyers,\" she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2015 NPR.

This week it detailed how education, healthcare, security, nutrition and the military would be hurt.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The “California impacts” include a loss of $87.6 million in funding for K-12 education, plus another $62.9 million in funds for about 760 educators who teach children with disabilities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California economists interviewed by KQED don’t see these cuts as disabling. Stephen Levy, director and senior economist at the Center for Continuing Study of the California Economy in Palo Alto, \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2013/02/22/how-sequestration-budget-cuts-could-affect-the-bay-area/\">told us last week\u003c/a> that the effect would be a “small reduction” in jobs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On \u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/a/forum/R201302250900\">KQED’s Forum\u003c/a> on Monday, he offered an estimate. “It might shave 75,000 jobs off an expected gain of 250,000, depending on how long it goes on,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Half the blow is set to fall on the military, which might have been devastating to California a generation ago. But so many military bases have closed in the state over last 30 years that the cuts will take a much smaller bite.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The cuts won’t take effect right away, and the federal government will revisit the budget in October anyway, Levy pointed out on KQED.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In fact Californians in general don’t suck as much from the federal teat as folks in other states, David Leonhardt, Washington D.C. bureau chief for the New York Times said on the program. “States on the coasts tend to be a little less reliant on the federal government than states in the South and in the Midwest.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lenore Anderson, director of Californians for Safety and Justice, on the other hand, worried about the effects of the cuts on planning programs at law enforcement agencies. “Federal funding is an incredibly important source for innovation,” she said. “When you talk about eliminating that federal funding or significantly reducing it definitely has a direct impact on California communities.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She predicted layoffs at police department up and down the state.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Similarly, Gary Falle, associate vice president for federal governmental relations at the University of California, said the cuts could be devastating to programs like Pell Grants, which help students pay for education.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And Frank Gaffney, president and CEO of the Center for Security Policy, said the sequester would hollow out the U.S. military.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Asked to reconcile these estimates with his relatively more reassuring view, Levy agreed that the cuts would certainly be painful for those directly effected, but said they just won’t deal a body blow to the state as a whole.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The sequester threat dates back to August 2011 when Democrats and Republicans were battling over the amount the federal government could legally borrow to pay its bills.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Republicans didn’t want to raise the debt ceiling unless Democrats agreed to budget cuts. Democrats didn’t want to cut.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As a compromise, Congress came up with a package of cuts that would go into effect if a bipartisan committee couldn’t come up with a better deal: $850 billion would be subtracted from the budgets of dozens of federal agencies over 10 years, and half of it would come out of the military.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the committee failed to strike a deal, which could mean the axe blows begin falling on federal departments starting on Friday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here is the Obama Administration’s list of California cuts:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 12px auto 6px auto;font-family: Helvetica,Arial,Sans-serif;font-style: normal;font-variant: normal;font-weight: normal;font-size: 14px;line-height: normal\">\u003ca title=\"View California Sequester Budget Cuts on Scribd\" href=\"http://www.scribd.com/doc/127246361/California-Sequester-Budget-Cuts\">California Sequester Budget Cuts\u003c/a> by \u003ca title=\"View Lairdh's profile on Scribd\" href=\"http://www.scribd.com/Lairdh\">Lairdh\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http://www.scribd.com/embeds/127246361/content?start_page=1&view_mode=scroll&access_key=key-17vj1ey1buth49s95uyf\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" width=\"100%\" height=\"600\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\n",

But so many military bases have closed in the state over last 30 years that the cuts will take a much smaller bite.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The cuts won’t take effect right away, and the federal government will revisit the budget in October anyway, Levy pointed out on KQED.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In fact Californians in general don’t suck as much from the federal teat as folks in other states, David Leonhardt, Washington D.C. bureau chief for the New York Times said on the program. “States on the coasts tend to be a little less reliant on the federal government than states in the South and in the Midwest.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lenore Anderson, director of Californians for Safety and Justice, on the other hand, worried about the effects of the cuts on planning programs at law enforcement agencies. “Federal funding is an incredibly important source for innovation,” she said. “When you talk about eliminating that federal funding or significantly reducing it definitely has a direct impact on California communities.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She predicted layoffs at police department up and down the state.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Similarly, Gary Falle, associate vice president for federal governmental relations at the University of California, said the cuts could be devastating to programs like Pell Grants, which help students pay for education.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And Frank Gaffney, president and CEO of the Center for Security Policy, said the sequester would hollow out the U.S. military.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Asked to reconcile these estimates with his relatively more reassuring view, Levy agreed that the cuts would certainly be painful for those directly effected, but said they just won’t deal a body blow to the state as a whole.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The sequester threat dates back to August 2011 when Democrats and Republicans were battling over the amount the federal government could legally borrow to pay its bills.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Republicans didn’t want to raise the debt ceiling unless Democrats agreed to budget cuts. Democrats didn’t want to cut.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As a compromise, Congress came up with a package of cuts that would go into effect if a bipartisan committee couldn’t come up with a better deal: $850 billion would be subtracted from the budgets of dozens of federal agencies over 10 years, and half of it would come out of the military.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the committee failed to strike a deal, which could mean the axe blows begin falling on federal departments starting on Friday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here is the Obama Administration’s list of California cuts:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 12px auto 6px auto;font-family: Helvetica,Arial,Sans-serif;font-style: normal;font-variant: normal;font-weight: normal;font-size: 14px;line-height: normal\">\u003ca title=\"View California Sequester Budget Cuts on Scribd\" href=\"http://www.scribd.com/doc/127246361/California-Sequester-Budget-Cuts\">California Sequester Budget Cuts\u003c/a> by \u003ca title=\"View Lairdh's profile on Scribd\" href=\"http://www.scribd.com/Lairdh\">Lairdh\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http://www.scribd.com/embeds/127246361/content?start_page=1&view_mode=scroll&access_key=key-17vj1ey1buth49s95uyf\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" width=\"100%\" height=\"600\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
